Huh... Five years...
Anyway, fixed it by accident. Was looking at problems with Java on older AWM
implementations. Focus problems are fixed by using:
function delay_raise ()
-- 5 ms ages in computer time, but I won't notice it.
local raise_timer = timer { timeout = 0.005 }
raise_timer:connect_signal("timeout",
function()
if client.focus then
client.focus:raise()
end
raise_timer:stop()
end)
raise_timer:start()
end
Hook it like this:
-- Default client focus
awful.key({ modkey }, "k",
function ()
awful.client.focus.byidx(1)
delay_raise()
end),
awful.key({ modkey }, "j",
function ()
awful.client.focus.byidx(-1)
delay_raise()
end),
